Giuliana & Bill

Are you watching their show? Well, you gotta CHECK IT OUT because they go to the same IVF center that I do! We see different doctors and unfortunately I've never run into them when they are there, but I suspect they go when the office is closed. I admire them so much for speaking about their struggles of infertility, and while it is heart wrenching to watch, it makes me feel not so alone in my struggle.

Egg Retrieval #2

Well, sometime in the next couple of days I'll be having the second egg retrieval. Things are moving along, I'm responding to the medication protocol, and I'm now going in EVERY morning for blood work and ultrasound. I'll keep doing this schedule until they deem me ready. I'm giving myself 3 injections every evening, and in turn my stomach is bruised and swollen. I could also inject the medication in my thighs, but then I can't wear a swimsuit! LOL
Anyway, I'm not fun to be around these days as I have a constant headache and I'm extremely tired. It's hard for me to articulate what I'm feeling right now with my hormones so completely out of control at this point. I will say that I feel like I'm bit by bit moving forward with my life. I'm not sure how all this will turn out, but I'm just trying to take things one day at a time.
